Reading the canvas
A market in front of the New Mosque catches people in the middle of doing something. The interest is entirely in the interval between the figures — who is speaking, who has stopped listening.
A market in front of the New Mosque. Our painter follows the same logic rather than copying a photograph of it: the figures are drawn first and the colour put on top, so the bodies keep their weight.

What makes it hard to copy
Figure painting lives in the small tonal gaps between one body and the next. A press closes those gaps; a painter keeps them open, so the relations between the figures survive.
Every canvas is painted to order, so the quote follows your size, frame and destination rather than a fixed list. Tell us what you need on WhatsApp and we reply with an exact figure, usually within the hour. There is no agency in between; the studio that paints your canvas is the one answering your messages.
What size works
Because we paint each piece from scratch, you are not limited to stock dimensions. Common choices:
| Size (inches) | Size (cm) | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| 48 × 36 in | 122 × 91 cm | Large living room, stairwell, loft |
| 40 × 30 in | 102 × 76 cm | Living room focal wall, above a sofa |
| 32 × 24 in | 81 × 61 cm | Living room, above a sideboard |
| 30 × 24 in | 76 × 61 cm | Dining room, bedroom feature wall |
Treat this as a starting point. We cut canvases to whatever the wall requires. Shipping and framing are not included in the canvas quote. Duties and import taxes are for the buyer's account (DAP).
Tell us where it will hang and how big it needs to be — we will price it properly.

We have painted it most often for clients hanging it above a console or low piece of furniture. Proportions follow the original, not the nearest standard frame size. Anything panoramic or vertical is handled as a matter of course.
What people ask us
What size should I order?
You choose the size. Each canvas is cut to your measurements rather than pulled from stock, so tell us the wall dimensions and we will tell you what proportion works.
How do I clean and care for it?
Dust lightly with a dry, soft brush and keep it out of direct sun. Nothing else is needed for decades; oil paint is slow to change and easy to live with.
Is there a rush option?
It depends on the canvas and what else is in the studio. Ask on WhatsApp with your size and we will tell you straight what is possible.
